[ha-Safran] FW: [EXT]Free library of Jewish Books available for donation!

2021-11-03 Thread Heidi Rabinowitz via Hasafran
Hello Safranim,
Is there anyone out there who would be interested in the collection described 
below? Or do you know of some other individual or library that would be 
interested? This sounds like a higher quality donation than the usual offers...
Thanks

Subject: [EXT]Free library of Jewish Books available for donation!

For the last twenty-five years I have by gift and purchase accumulated Jewish 
books in Hebrew and English. Forced to "de-clutter" our home, I want to donate 
them all lest they end up, chas-v'halilah, in the landfill. There are Israeli 
novels, Anchor series bible books, the JPS Full torah commentary, Fishbane's 
JPS Haftarot, plus the Apocrypha (Charles, two volumes), The Midrash compiled 
by Bialik and Ravnitsky Hebrew and English, Books about and translating the 
Dead Sea Scrolls. 
Philo and Josephus. Shorter books about the Biblical books (Sarna, Exploring 
Exodus; Who Wrote the Bible? Friedman; Who Was A Jew?; Jastrow (Compact and 
full size), etc. A full set of Rambam's Yad and another of the Kahati edition 
of the Mishnah, and another of the Torat Chayiim, the Mikraot G'dolot in block 
printed Hebrew (i.e., not Rashi script). It's an eclectic scholar's/ rabbi's 
library. Not only will I donate the books; I'll also pay someone to box and 
ship them to the donee. Surely some place in the Jewish world there is a home 
for them? Could the Academy be it? Please let me know and forward this offer to 
anyone or any body you think might be interested.

[ha-Safran] pages needed

2021-11-03 Thread Aileen Grossberg via Hasafran
Our new rabbi brought to my attention that Nehama Leibowitz,  Studies in 
Bereshit /Genesis, translated and adapted from the Hebrew by Aryeh Newman,  
fourth revised edition, World Zionist Organization, 1981. Is missing pages 
289-320.

I would be extremely grateful if someone could send me those pages so that I 
can make an insert to replace them... And she will be suitably impressed.

Thank you in advance.

After the HolocaustMonty Noam Penkower

October 2021 | 230 pp. | 9781644696798 | $29.95 | Paperback

The chapters in this volume examine a few facets in the drama of how the 
survivors of the Holocaust contended with life after the darkest night in 
Jewish history. They include the Earl Harrison mission and significant report, 
the effort to keep Europe’s borders open to refugee infiltration, the murder of 
the first Jew in Germany after V-E Day and its impact, and the iconic 
sculptures of Nathan Rapoport and Poland’s landscape of Holocaust memory up to 
the present day. Joining extensive archival research and a limpid prose, 
Professor Monty Noam Penkower again displays a definitive mastery of his craft.

Monty Noam Penkower, professor emeritus of Jewish History at the Machon Lander 
Graduate School of Jewish Studies (Jerusalem), is the prize-winning author of 
many books on the Holocaust, on American Jewry, and on the rise of the State of 
Israel in the years 1933-1948.

Praise for After the Holocaust

“These thoroughly researched, detailed, meticulously presented essays shed 
stimulating new light on several hitherto-overlooked aspects of the complex 
processes of rebuilding the Jewish world following the Holocaust. They are an 
important addition to a growing literature on the subject.”

— David Engel, Maurice Greenberg Professor of Holocaust Studies, New York 
University

“Monty Penkower’s After the Holocaust is a very valuable addition to the 
historical studies of the tumultuous period which followed the end of World War 
II and the Nazis’ efforts to totally annihilate the Jews of Europe, events 
which dramatically changed the course of Jewish history. His book presents a 
detailed chronicle of how those developments transpired, and identifies the key 
political figures whose decisions were crucial in the process. Unlike the other 
volumes which have focused on this period, however, Penkower continues his 
analysis and brings it up to date, providing a fascinating account of the 
phenomenon of Holocaust distortion, which has become a major problem in 
contemporary Holocaust commemoration, research and education. A must read!”

— Dr. Efraim Zuroff, Director, Simon Wiesenthal Center, Israel

“Monty Penkower has done it yet again. In a new and fascinating book about Jews 
in Europe entitled After the Holocaust, he presents us with five expanded 
essays, each of which focuses on another aspect of post-war Jewish existence in 
the years immediately following that cataclysm. His artfully crafted volume is 
a very worthwhile read!"

— Judy Baumel-Schwartz, Director, Arnold and Leona Finkler Institute of 
Holocaust Research,     Bar-Ilan University
